What do reviewers say about Oud Seven and Interlude Black Iris?
Some oud fragrances apologize for being oud. This one doesn't. The violet leaf cuts through the darkness with something almost cool, almost refined. It's still bold, still fills the room.Oud Seven
If Interlude Man is a controlled burn, Black Iris is the smoldering aftermath, cooler and more refined. The iris adds a powdery sophistication that makes this one of Amouage's most wearable orientals.Interlude Black Iris
